Question I wish I could afford a ZL1

So I can be badass and gap the Mustangs even harder.

In all seriousness it's tough to choose a ZL1 or a Corvette at that price.

I've been debating this since January, after I sold my Mustang.

Was going to be the Grand Sport, until the ZL1 1LE was leaked. Now, it's a no brainer for me. Only thing I will miss is the pop-top.

I have had both and the ZL1 is the best choice of the two.

Yeah the ZL1 1LE is going to be a monster. Time for me to start saving up for it hopefully The SS is fun in the meantime and generally it's hard to find good excuses other than the track to have fun.

If I save up that amount, then you made me seal the deal on a ZL1 lol.

Start saving money, don't get married, don't knock anyone up, work as much OT as you can, don't go out too much, and you can have one sooner than you think!! Eventually you'll get one man!!

I wanted a Z06. But after sitting in one, or trying to fit into one, I had to decline. They are 2 seaters and as such they do not recline as much as a Camaro. And at my height, getting in and out of a ZL1 is difficult enough. A Z06 would be even worse. Now if I was a bit shorter then I would have had to really think about the 2 choices. But as it is the ZL1 is perfect for me. Both are really awesome cars and you can't go wrong with either choice!!

Haha well I'm married already. No kids yet, I'm about to get a raise, I don't go out much as it is, so hopefully I'm on track. Wifey supports my car dreams anyways. She's a Camaro fan as well!

OK, I wish I could afford a Bentley because it has the strongest p_$$y magnet in the world. ZL1 is bad ass for sure. If my SS is scary fast, the ZL1 must be super scary fast.

I own one of each, both converts. I am 6' 2", 250 and fit into both cars easily. Obviously headroom is not a problem. The A8 Z06 is a bit faster but the A10 Zl1 is more user friendly and easier to drive.

I agree with the Bentley. I used to own a RR Corniche. It got by far more attention from the gals (all ages) than any car I have ever owned.

I would think a Vette would attract more girls. Bentley would get girls saying "oh that's a nice Chrysler!"
